Afghanistan have time and again proved to be a very dangerous side as they are consistently stepping up their performances across all formats of the game. After registering their second Test victory over Bangladesh from just three Test games, Afghanistan have now added another feat to their name. Afghanistan batsmen Najibullah Zadran and Mohammad Nabi smashed seven sixes off seven deliveries as they fast-tracked the team's score to 197 runs at the end of 20 overs, a stiff target for Zimbabwe to chase. After a blistering knock of 43 runs from opener Rahmanullah Gurbaz, the Afghanistan batting order survived a mild collapse in between, only for Nabi and Zardan to light up the skies by sending seven deliveries out of the park consecutively.
